Website Domain Names

What is a Domain Name?
The domain name is the name of your web site, such as 'yourcompany.co.nz" or the closest name to it that is available.

Can I have any name?
Hundreds of thousands of names are being requested every week!. Here is a piece of very good advice: If you think you would like a web site in the future then ask us to register your preferred domain name now otherwise someone else might. You may think that no one else will want 'Widgets.Com' but that name has already gone. Ask Wehost Internet Services to register your preferred domain name today so that no one beats you to it. The whole world are out there snapping up those great sounding names at an astounding and increasing rate.

If i type a name into my browser and no site comes up, does that mean it is available for me to register.
Unfortunately no. Millions of people have registered domain names for the future but have not commissioned development of the web site. Wehost Internet Services will  undertake a search to ascertain if the domain names you require are available.

.com .co.nz, .org..
.co.nz means that the site is a New Zealand site. A domain name ending in .co.nz receives a boost from major N.Z. search engines.  Such a name may also discourage internet users in other countries from browsing your site. This can be an advantage or a disadvantage, it depends on whether your services are available internationally. If your target market is in N.Z. then we recommend a .co.nz name.
